No one ever told me!! I figured it out on my own.... sheesh... And I remember being very elvish about it at first. Kind of looking down my nose at all of the simple ones playing their silly games. But this place cures you of elvishness in a hurry. I figured if you can't beat 'em, join 'em.
But I didn't know what a threadkiller was. Had to have that one laboriously spelled out to me....right Bear? ;^)
You know, I still feel badly about that! :)
Hmmm... makes me wonder if we need to develop a Hobbit Hole FAQ that we can point newcomers to, to bring them up to speed quickly....
